Prank Loved Ones This Chrimbo With the Pet Petter Gift Box
Prank Loved Ones This Chrimbo With the Pet Petter Gift Box
I love PrankPack's fake boxes, which fool the recipients into thinking they've just unwrapped a Dream Griddle alarm clock or iArm mount for Apple gadgets, like we've seen before. A new one—and personal fave—is the Pet Petter box.
The Pet Petter is for poor sad pets who no longer get any cuddles. It goes at a speed of 85ppm (pets per minute)....or it would, if it were a real product. Because you see, these gift boxes are completely empty, with the idea being you put the real gift inside and trick the recipient. You better not put a real alarm clock or pet grooming tool in these boxes, or you may just get throttled.
Prank Pack's second new box this year is the family Slanket (sorry, Blankeez), which fits eight people—and even an SUV, so could even double up as a car cover! Or it could, if you know, it were real.
A special offer will net you three for $20, otherwise order as many as you want over on the product page here: [PrankPack]

Cause man, I was probably the most unpopular person on the gift-giving circuit with those a few years back. You'll never forget the look on someone's face when they unwrap what appears to be a USB-powered toaster. And it looks like they have a new one this year, Department of Homeland Security Cologne!
Anyone else noticed the typo on the petter? It says 'Pets Dogs' rather than 'Pats Dogs'...
ps: The cats face says its all with its 'WTF' look. Reply
i'm considering the pet petter for my desk upstairs.i'd like for it to move my mouse every few minutes to keep me from going idle while i'm downstairs watching TV and pretending to work from home. Reply

They stole the Pet Petter idea from the Garfield Christmas Special, where Garfield makes one for Odie from odds and ends he finds in the barn.
If you're going to steal ideas, at least make them "good" ideas. Reply
Damn. I wish the Pet Petter was real. My cat sheds more hair that you can put in a cotton candy cone every day. Reply
Oh my God...*snicker* You like it?
I've never gotten a more thoughtful gift!
Uh...
Just think when I'm on vacation, Mr. Snickerdoodle will have something to comfort him!
But...
*hugs* You're the kindest sweetest man I've ever met!
Maybe I should...
*opens*
Oh......an iPod. Thanks, but......why did you put it in this box? Where's my auto petter?
